Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving on the highway and my engine just failed. i had it towed to the chrysler dealership and paid 100 to find out what was wrong with my car. they told me that the timing chain failed. once the timing chain failed it sent the chain through the engine and basically destroyed the entire engine. there was only 59,000 miles on the engine which is well below chrysler's 100,000 mile replacement reccomendation. i had to have the engine rebuilt which cost $4,000 and drained my savings completely. *ak
